why does the hood shake so much like if it was a piece of cardboard.
either way , best color and he could have gone a lil bit faster and got sideways a lil bit more.

they probably removed the supports underneath to cut weight...

yeh watched it a second time..admitably it was quite crap.... I think I can do better (dont we all?), the drifts were a little slow and not so fast.. some poor camera angles also. Might have to find an abandaned complex.... :)

if we did not see ken block vidz we might say it's ok.....(now ken block is the bench mark) but since it's obvious that they are trying to be like ken block he failed.........he lacks sideway drifts, i've seen some rallies which way better.


this is more worth watching....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci_p6ulyTRg

That wasnt very good to me. That looked like you put me and the car and let my have a go at it. The coarse was boring as well.

the video wasnt the best... but whats all this shit about ken block... admittedly I cant drive that well.. but most D1 drivers do wayyy crazier crap than ken... not to mention all the ken block videos are multiple takes... its easy to take one turn @ a time really fast... iono... too much credit to him imo... definately not the bar...

agreed. but he did the video correct. when you watch it you get a sense of woa. and it's not like his skill at maneuvering that car isn't amazing. He just happens to win as to the marketing of himself and thats a huge factor.

Absolutely 100% agreed. Marketing himself / the suby - hands down ken block... but all over the forums... not just this one... you see people posting that gymkhana video a million times saying how awesome he is @ driving... I mean... most people dont realize its not one continuous video lol... but yea... def better at the marketing part and of course the video was very well put 2gether... and +1 on the wow factor... my quam is more w/ his "leet skills" lol

Thats Awesome! And yea... he is hella cool... dont mean to take away anything from him... just wanna make sure people understand what he is doing... I see misappropriated credit flying back n forth all too much lol

I found this more impressive than the Ken Block video. Simply because it's a much smaller course, and shot in one sequence.

but that car is go kart car.....they need to drive same car to differentiate each other. i think there is still other guy same events and he's riding an old mini and he's better.
